Honour Without Renown (Classic Reprint) Excerpt from Honour Without Renown Having been requested by many friends to give as promised, a "further glimpse" of "The Three Daughters of the United Kingdom," I have endeavoured to comply with the request in the following pages. It does us no harm, in these days of turmoil and incessant motion, of selfish hurry for fame and luxury, to pause now and again and realise that many of our fellow creatures of all ages, classes, and nations, have willingly cast aside these very gifts and possessions for which we so vainly strive and yearn, in order to devote their lives, their wealth, and talents to the relief and comfort of the poor and weak ones of the earth. Surely their lives stand out as an object lesson, the study of which acts upon us as a healthy stimulant, encouraging us to greater endurance and fortitude. It causes us also to ponder and search for the motive which prompted them to perform such generous deeds; making them hold as worthless all that we seem to prize so dearly, and to count, as treasure untold, the hidden blessings of the poor and destitute. Again, we may say what we will in praise of the advanced state of society, yet we cannot deny that there still lingers a sweet halo of restful refinement, a tender memory of unselfish motherly love, in our youthful recollections of the woman of the days gone by. And, true to life, I have endeavoured to depict the lives and characters of these "Three Daughters of the United Kingdom."

Excerpt from Honour Without RenownThe equinoctial gales were at their highest. Loud boisterous winds scoured the peaceful valleys, bent the treetops and whistled through their almost lea?ess branches, leaving broad visible tracks of ruthless destruction in their course. Then, as if angered at the sturdy resistance offered by the stately oaks and sheltered woods of Baron Court, the storm tore up the hillsides and swept along the lonely moors as though to revenge it self in noisy and exultant glee upon the sparse, tall pine trees which in thin and irregular ranks crowned the highest hills and broke the other wise monotonous line of the horizon. Yet the force of the gale served but as pastime and sport for those old veteran firs; they merely bowed their dark green heads stiffly to the fury of the storm as it swept madly past, then rose again to their height, seeming to draw in with thirsty pleasure the sheets of pelting rain which dashed and beat with fury against their hard brown stems.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
